The Giants on Saturday activated running back Shane Vereen from their injured-reserve list.
Vereen had been out since September due to a triceps injury. He returned to practice in late November and was activated, as expected, ahead of the deadline for the Giants to make a decision on his status.
Vereen was a valuable and productive pass-catcher out of the backfield for the Giants last season. In three games this season he’s caught eight passes for 75 yards.
Offensive lineman Adam Gettis was waived to create a roster spot for Vereen.
